Bowen Training Australia News

Kelly Clancy returns to Australia in 2017!

US Bowenwork Instructor Kelly Clancy returns to Australia in 2017 to teach her workshop series Tensegrity Medicine™. Offered in two parts, these two-day Tensegrity and Fascial assessment workshops are designed for the Bowen practitioner looking for cutting edge assessment tools that allow a more targeted, scientific, effective treatment approach. By learning to objectively test and document connective tissue limitations, you will be able to choose the most appropriate Bowen procedures, helping to avoid over-treatment, and staying true to Tom Bowen’s “less is more” mission. With these fascial assessment techniques and objective measures, you will then be able to educate your clients on the source of their discomfort, communicate client progress to other providers, and document outcomes for further Bowen research. Join us for these exciting, innovative workshops and learn to put these tools to work immediately in your practice!
